I always held the thought that to be a coin, it had to be struck (in which case the Lydian coins would still be the first true coins). Seems the...
As others have said, gold probably isn't a good short term investment. I'd recommend against getting in for that purpose as it may not work out....
I really like your old shillelagh, that's an absolute shame that someone took it (and before you had a chance to exercise its alternate purpose on...
Strangely I can't recall any coin dreams. But I do sometimes have a dream about finding gold nuggets. I'll be in the woods with my dad or someone...
I've yet to have anyone refuse to make change, but the signs are up. I think a big problem is that banks have made it difficult to turn in coins....
I assume most gold has blood on it, and I don't care. The article seems to be trying, to some extent, to shift blame to Americans who buy gold or...
Hi medoraman, I think you make a good point. Back in 2011 is when I started paying attention, so I remember plenty of "too the moon" talk then....
I haven't seen much easing, and don't expect to as long as silver is in the mainstream. This is new territory to me (I wasn't around in 1980 so...
What is the correct pronunciation? Foykt-wanger? (I read it this way, like how "Freud" is pronounced "Froyd". Fyookt-wanger? And it that a long...
I would make the coins a practical size that better reflects their value. Doing it my way would eliminate the cent and overhaul every other...
I can attest to coin shops doing this. I had one LCS give me a couple of loose proof Kennedys in change, and another time I got a proof Ike...
They did finally send my missing items after my last stern (but not mean) message sent via their website form, so at least that's good. However,...
Either of those seems like a great deal for 40% halves. Melt today on $100 face is $771 and I would always expect to be lowballed on 40%. I'm...
I know, I know! But I thought it was funny. Just a Coinstar find that I re-discovered in my change bucket. Someone took out their rage on this...
Cool round! Just a thought, have you checked the edge for markings? I have come across at least one silver round before with edge lettering...
Awesome notes; that is a quality set! Thank you for sharing. I have wanted a $10 North Africa star for a long time, but never being a very...
This otherwise bog standard A-Mark round makes my "one of the coolest" list due to the toning alone: [img] I also have a generic 1Oz Bust Dollar...
That was someone's fun little project. I have on occasion meticulously "modified" a coin on purpose, for no other reason than to make someone look...
Nice haul, those 100 yen coins are almost a buck each! Last find for me was a lone silver dime. It's happened a few times since I learned to check.
In my own opinion, money put into crypto should be your gambling money. Just like entering a casino, bring in only what you have decided to walk...
